WE have an "ex"-Klansman and an anti-Civil Rights governor siding with the Palestinians.
1. Why didn't they just erect and burn a cross in the Capitol while they were at it. The point would be explicit then.
2. Are either of these SOB's up for re-election?
AS for the House other than the Arab and Black members, who opposed the resolution?
Hollings is up in 2004, Byrd is up in 2006.
Byrd owns W. Virgina via pork spending and is unlikely to be unseated. Hollings could be more vulnerable. The techno-geeks already hate his guts because of the CBDTPA.
